Final Pot MP lost and shows a straight, Ace to Five.
CO wins and shows a straight, Three to Seven.
CO wins $763.48
Rake is $2.80

V co vs MP 9% 3bets after 1,5k handsample.
We are deeper so his range will consist more SC 65s,78,9Ts,97s,A4s,KJs typehands.
First I thought about 4betting this hand pre but I think calling even oop is fine w this hand beeing deep and getting a good price.

I think flop,turn is pretty standard he can have many draws and this hands belongs in my MDF.
Not sure how I should react to this overbet I only can split or loose against A6s,66,67s
Sooo it sucks honestly and I feel like he must be doing this w KQs for me too have a great call here which I dont think he will do.

It's sad that you posted the results. When I saw the turnbet - followed by the riverbet, I was pretty certain that he had 76s - which makes total sense.

You likely will have some 6x in your range as well - and even if not, Villain paid good money and the 4 was the one single great bluff card for him, so don't bother with being "exploitable" if you fold to the overbet.

Sorry about display the results. I was deleting it not sure why it still shows the results. It seems I accidentally forgot to do that.

Yes, your analyze makes sense I also felt like he has mostly 6x with this line and I should have some 6x as well.

No, just dont call here. A) villain should never be bluffing with this size b) if he has the better straight you lose much more than you should have c) pot odds determine that you would have to be right like 66% or more of the time. When you have 50% at best, you dont even break even calling his overbet.

I actually think that villain took the perfect line if he had Ax. You don't have a lot of 6x combos here: 66, Ah6h, 6h7h, 56s + occasional other combos of 67s, giving you 14 combos. Combined with the fact that Ah6h and 6h7h will sometimes raise the flop or turn and 67s will occasionaly fold earlier or raise, it makes for a very good shove on the river.

That being said, I think average reg does not do it nearly enough to justify calling.

i didn't even analyze the hand, just looked at the board and river sizing. because villain pretty much never does this (like ever) without an ace or six, it would be dumb to call for a split. You are handcuffed and can't do much about it.
